Fantasy Game: Infinite City

12 hours before the cruise ship docks, hotel.

In Han Zu's presidential suite, Zhao Xuan and Su Qing were sitting on the sofa. Su Qing was sorting out the information he had obtained in the past few days, while Zhao Xuan was fiddling with some battery-sized metal cylinders.

As for their boss Han Zu, he was currently using the simplest method to contact the person in charge of the scientific research base and the person in charge of the intelligence department.

Call.

After 2030, communication base stations around the world have undergone a global upgrade. From then on, the term "network delay" will only appear in the dictionary. Therefore, no matter how old you are, contacting others through the Internet is the fastest and most convenient way.

The word "make a phone call" has gradually become a term referring to video communication, and the actual method of using a number to make a call basically only appears in film and television works and game scenes.

However, this does not mean that dial-up calls are completely unusable. On the contrary, this most basic method of communication still has complete base stations. However, since few people use them, these base stations are basically controlled by low-end AI. After all, in this era, few people will check call records.

This relatively primitive method of communication played the greatest role for Han Zu. Because Q City used a relatively advanced shielding system, although it could theoretically intercept all communications, it seemed that this was not actually the case.

As a method that everyone can think of and operate, it was excluded. Even the radio station has a special signal interception device, but this was forgotten.

"Okay, I'll go to the cruise ship first, and then I can find some unstable energy rifts and build a usable teleportation anchor point. That's it for now."

After ending the call, Han Zu picked up the two keypad phones made by Zhao Xuan and pointed at Zhao Xuan twice.

"There is always a loophole in a hundred precautions, and that's what this situation is about."

"Boss, it's amazing that you can think of this method."

"It seems that things that everyone understands are really ignored by everyone instinctively. I am not the one who is smart, Zhao Xuan. If it weren't for your little machine that can detect the frequency of energy signals, I wouldn't have thought of this method."

"Boss, what do the base and the intelligence department say?" Su Qing was still more concerned about the next task.

"The research base and the intelligence department have different opinions, so they left it to me to make the decision. But this matter is quite interesting. The research base wants to investigate the traitor first, while the intelligence department plans to investigate the news about the deformed fetus first."

"Indeed, if I didn't know, I would have thought that their identities were mistaken."

"What do you mean, boss? What are we going to do next?"

Han Zu waved towards Zhao Xuan, who handed him some clean drawings and a pen. Han Zu turned the drawings over and spread them out on the coffee table. He drew a simple plan with the pen while talking about his ideas.

"First of all, the cruise ship will dock at the sightseeing pier of the beach park we visited two days ago in about eleven hours. I have asked Su Qing to pick up our custom-made dresses. Excluding the time for changing clothes, it will take more than two hours to get from the hotel parking lot to the pier. If we prepare in advance, we will have six or seven hours to prepare. The time should be just at sunset. After the cruise ship docks at the pier, it will stay for about one to two hours, and then it will leave the port and head for the sea."

Han Zu believes that apart from the cruise ship, there are two more important locations, one is the farm and the other is the private club.

It only takes an hour to get from here to the private club, but if you want to carry out rescue work under heavy guard, you will have to fight, which may waste a lot of time, and most likely you won't be able to get to the cruise ship in time. Of course, unless Han Zu gives up the rescue and directly erases that place from the map, but doing so is meaningless, and if the news gets out, it will give possible important targets time to escape. So the rescue mission is temporarily ranked as a secondary priority.

"As for the farm, according to the intelligence we have now, the only valuable action we can take against it is to blow it up. However, if we get important clues that were originally on the farm, then the gain will outweigh the loss. In addition, the farm is a full three and a half hours' drive from the hotel. If we don't encounter the enemy, the round trip time is just enough. But we all know that is impossible, so we will definitely not have enough time to go back and forth."

As for the casino, Han Zu simply put it at the last step of the operation, giving it the same priority as the evacuation, and as a backup route if he could not return by the original route on the private plane parked on the deserted island.

"According to the scans that the boss got from the casino a few days ago, the secret there is an unstable teleportation anchor point. The members of Night Owl used the underground of the casino, which is the location of the unstable rift, as a garbage disposal station. They don't have equipment that can stabilize the anchor point, but our Infinite Company has many ways to use this. At least in my original engineering department, interns can do this kind of thing."

"Let's make our next step, the banquet, the top priority, right?"

"Well, the general route of the operation is to follow the cruise ship banquet, farm, private club, and evacuate in this order. The specific situation may require us to adapt to the situation."

"So what do we do now?"

"It will take another six or seven hours before we set off. During this time, we can take a shower, have a meal, etc. If we have nothing to do, we can also take a nap. After all, we don't need to go out to collect any information for the time being. After all, various important characters should appear on the cruise ship today."

There were no extra tasks to do, so Zhao Xuan and Su Qing didn't know what to do. An hour was enough for trivial matters like washing and changing dresses, and they really didn't know what to do for the remaining hours.

"I just asked the hotel front desk to send over a lot of food. Do you want to eat some together?"

The boss Han Zu spoke, which just happened to give Su Qing and Zhao Xuan, who had nothing to do at the moment, something to do. After the food cart came up, the three of them chatted while eating.

"Boss, since the attention of Q City today will be attracted by the fighting of the rebels and the cruise party of Night Owl, why don't we take this opportunity to act separately? Logically speaking, this is probably the fastest way to be efficient, right?"

"If we had entered the Night Owl's sphere of influence separately when we came here, your method would indeed work. But after all, we came together, so if any one of us was missing, it might arouse unnecessary suspicion. After all, we are in someone else's territory. Although it is not a big deal, it is better to be safe than sorry, but it is still best not to take any action that you are not sure of."

While Zhao Xuan was eating, he was still fiddling with those battery-sized metal cylinders. Su Qing quietly observed their movements. Zhao Xuan was very focused on those things. Even while he was eating, he occasionally exchanged a few words with his boss Han Zu, but his eyes never left those things.

As for the boss Han Zu, he didn't look at those things much, but Su Qing discovered a small thing. The boss, who usually smoked a lot, almost never lit a cigarette when he was near Zhao Xuan's things. Based on his previous understanding of the boss and the information Zhao Xuan introduced about his abilities at that time, Su Qing could probably guess what those things were used for, so he instinctively leaned back a little.

Time passed quickly. Zhao Xuan and Su Qing returned to their respective rooms and changed into their custom-made dresses. Then they came to the hotel's underground parking lot and found their boss Han Zu, who had been waiting there for more than ten minutes. He was sitting in the driver's seat of an expensive but low-key business car, which he had bought two days ago.

Han Zu got in the car and drove away from the hotel towards the tourist pier. Along the way, he could see a number of luxurious convoys. The car carrying the three of them seemed unusually low-key, which was exactly what Han Zu expected.

"Be smart, it's just ahead."

I saw the Ferris wheel of the beach park from afar and could vaguely hear the sound of music coming from the park. It seemed that there were quite a lot of people there.
